Tools order in Tree

Hi,

I noticed a new option in the right-click menu of a treenode: edit>sort alphabetically. Actually I don't know if it's new, or if I just discovered it now

I wanted to use it to reorganize the Tools in the tree view, since FlexSim adds them as you create them, you somethimes don't find them at once.

However I would like to know if their order has any use for any pre-existing logic (using the rank number for example)? Or if I would need to update anything afterwards.

Thanks!

Some code presumes that the Tools folder is the first thing in your model so it needs to remain ranked #1, but I don't think anything is hard-coded to look for things at a certain rank within the Tools folder. You should be able to reorganize the contents of Tools without issue.

The only exception might be an open window that has something that is currently referencing something in the Tools folder by path with ranks. If you close all your windows and reopen them, then this shouldn't be an issue.

Ok, thanks a lot!
